To be fair, I don't think that Mitch Kapor has much, if any say, in
the running of Lotus Corp. these days, he may still own some stock but
I don't think he's in charge. Admittedly, he should make Lotus first
on the lawsuit list, but hey ....

Of course, I don't know precisely what I'm talking about, but I seem
to remember Mitch being ousted from control at some point.
